I am in awe at the pictures of Haiti, the destruction and the people. Honestly, it is events like this that you never forget where you were when you saw it or heard about it.
If you know nothing about Haiti, read a little about the poverty that already existed. If you want something not mainstream media, check out this blog of missionaries in the area.
The number one need is money, CNN put together a list of international organizations currently providing relief that are accepting donations.
One easy option text HAITI to 90999 to make a $10 donation to the Red Cross.
Another Option:
I know for most of us we don’t have excessive fund to donate. We do have an abundance of other items. If you know of a clothing, blanket, personal care items etc. type drive in your please leave a comment with the details. I will pull any details together make a running list by area.
